This week, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in two cases, Gonzalez v. Google and Twitter v. Taamneh, which discussed the liability of social media companies when their platforms are used by terrorist groups.
And I'm Micah Loewinger. This week, the high court pondered the fate of Silicon Valley.Could change the Internet as we know it.It's just uncharted territory. I mean, what would happen if you opened up the companies to that kind of liability?The justices heard oral arguments for two cases, both concerning social media and terrorism and the future of speech and business on the Internet. On Wednesday, they heard Twitter v. Taamneh, a case which stems from a 2017 ISIS attack in Turkey.
And the family of one of the victims of the shooting sued Twitter and other social media companies saying that they had turned a blind eye while ISIS took their platforms and radicalized people around the world.You have to prove Twitter has had substantial knowledge that Islamic State material was on their platform. And then you need to draw a line between that material and the actual act of terrorism.
Blatt painted a catastrophic picture of what would happen to the Web without Section 230, where sites would either give up on content moderation.And you basically have the Internet of filth, violence, hate speech and everything else that's not attractive.
